Hey everybody,
So I changed my mind on together again, sorry. But I don't really like how the story is missing so much details and parts so I've decided to just rewrite it.
So here's the deal if you like this one better then TA#1 just unfavorite it and favor this one… if the first one's favs get too low I'll just delete it. Sound good?
Well I'll put more thought into it, more detail and all that jazz and hopefully its better then the first.
AND NOTE TO THIS ENTIRE STORY IS DIFFERENT SO KEEP AN OPEN MIND PLEASE.
REVIEW AND TELL ME HOW YOU LIKE IT PLEASE!

Full summery.
Little did I believe in conspiracies, mythical tales, and legends; until I met a brown haired, brown eyed god named Dimitri. He was my father's guardian and low and behold we fell in love. A secret romance like in the books I read, we kept it under wraps, hidden from all eyes, all minds no one knew until one night it all fell apart. I found something that was in myths and legends. But I lost one person that was the closest to my heart for it and what it held for endless opportunities. But I can save that one person…for a price.
Ch.1
ROSES POV FOR THE SUMMERYAND THIS PART
My father is a merchant in Britain, is name Ivan (I forget his last name) he is famous for his silk trading overseas and the large farm he owned. We are rich and in danger the Strigoi had found out about how he had one of them killed for trading an infertile pig for a fat, lively, healthy cow. I told him it was an unfair trade but he thought he knew it all. I was right and he went into a fit.
The anger arose in the Strigoi land not too far from Britain, three weeks travel to be precise but unfortunately for us they only had eight days travel.
I didn't get to leave the farm too often because of it and he and mother got a guardian each, they called themselves Dhampir's. And that's when I met Dimitri and the other guardian Tasha, who guards mother Janine Hathaway.
I walked into the markets looking for something to eat, it was around noon. The sun rose high in the sky, it was hot and sticky, I hated it especially in a dress that I couldn't breathe in much less sit in without falling over from exhaustion or fainting like a damsel in distress. So I just stand, all day, sweating buckets, waiting to get this infernal thing off.
I strolled into one of the booths for food, an apple was for sale; cheap. As I went to put the crisp skin to my mouth a small orphan child looked up at me with pleading eyes I smiled and handed it to him. He smiled and gave me a throaty thank you as he ran to his small sister to share. I asked the man selling the food for three loaves of bread and two more apples. He gave me a skeptical look but did as I asked without question. I handed him the money and walked over to the orphaned siblings. The apple was finished between them, I knelt down and handed them all of the food except the seconded apple I wanted. Their smiles brightened as they took the bread and apple. The little girl handed her brother her loaf of bread and threw her arms around my neck. I hugged her back gently, when the hug was over she and her brother left to their small home in an alley.
I sighed feeling a little more than upset with poverty. The children need to come first rather than the adults, they were our next generation and should be in a little better condition then I or any other merchant here. Then I smiled I did a good deed for them and saved them from starvation.
"That was nice of you." Said someone behind me, I looked to see who it was. He was tall with red hair and green eyes, freckles scattered across his cheeks and nose. He was cute but I didn't recognize him.
"Thank you, I try my best. Who are you exactly?"
"I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself sooner, I'm Mason Ashford."
"Rose Hathaway" He held out his hand for me to take it, I did and he turned it up and brought his lips to meet the skin. As he was returning it back to me I set it to my side and took a bite out of the apple.
"So why did you help those orphans?"
"Why not?" I retorted, he gave me a small grimace, a lady doesn't talk to a man like him the way I did. But I don't care a mans a man and nothing more nothing less. Yes they did build the houses and everything but I still gave them their respect they deserved just not as much as other ladies would.
"Well it seems strange that a woman of your statues would do something so nice for orphans."
"What's wrong with a heart?"
"Nothing. I didn't mean to offend or upset you, sorry." Sorry for what?
"It's alright you didn't. I'm just trying to spread some kindness around here."
"Oh….." just as he was going to say more he was called by someone in the background.
"I must excuse myself Miss Rose." He held out his hand again and gave it a small kiss.
"Have a lovely day." He said and turned to leave with an impatient caller.
"You too" I said to his back awkwardly.
Next it was my turn to leave.
Sunset was not far away when I entered the door of the house, I was greeted by Dimitri's sweet small smile and Tasha's smug one.
"Where have you been young lady?" father came down the stairs with mother in tow. They both looked equally mad and irritated.
"Out in the markets"
"Why?"
I shrugged my shoulders not answering. He rose an eyebrow.
"I was doing good deeds"
"For whom?"
"People"
"Rose you know not to go out without anybody with you that you know."
"I was with Lissa" I lied.
Lissa was my best friend with equally good looks as me but with the British blond hair and blue eyes. We have been best friends since infancy. Our parents are friends and host parties in order to promote their businesses. We get along well almost as if we were sisters.
His eyes narrowed suspiciously
"Really, because she can be in two places at once?"
"She was here?" I was in so much trouble, again.
"Yeah I guess she can be isn't that amazing!" he said melodramaticaly. I smiled innocently and tried to pull myself out of trouble.
"Rose, this reckless behavior has to stop" mother chimed in I mentally rolled my eyes, they've said the same thing for over a year and never did anything to enforce it, in for which I was grateful for.
"Sure, sure I'll do better next time I promise." Again the eye's narrowed.
"You said that the last time and the time before that and so on."
"Yes because I was younger now I'm a woman who sticks to my promises like a responsible adult" I nodded after the statement just for impasses. Now he frowned; irritated and retreated up the stairs. Mother just looked at me disappointed, as usual. But I didn't mind anymore it takes to much energy trying to please her then just disobeying her. She left after him after a frown.
Ok I think that's it for the first chapter. What do you think? Like? Dislike?
Review please!
